Zhong Jianhua, deputy chief executive of the Hong Kong Institute of Public Opinion, left Hong Kong for the UK a few days ago, stating that the political environment in Hong Kong is getting worse and worse.
He responded to a commercial TV program this morning (27th), saying that Hong Kong is currently "pervading the style of the Cultural Revolution", and it is difficult to freely comment on current affairs without being dominated by fear.
He mentioned that the earlier arrest of Au Jialin, a senior media person and a professional consultant of the School of Journalism and Communication of CUHK, and the fact that some young people were accused of incitement and long-term resignation simply for calling for no vaccinations made him have to think about it. important case.
The bombardment camp seeks political revenge in the "name of national security"
Zhong Jianhua pointed out that he has never done anything illegal, but every time he sees any problems with the government's administration, he will directly reprimand it. The current situation of the Hong Kong government has become worse than before, and some pro-establishment people are now "using the name of national security" to act. The real political revenge is to make some "Cultural Revolution-style accusations", and these accusations may eventually turn into some law enforcement actions to deprive dissidents of their freedom.
He recalled that he has experienced several waves of immigration since the 1980s, but he has not left. He hopes to use Hong Kong as his home to contribute the knowledge he has learned to society and promote social change, but the recent situation has made him even more worried, and he will be accused at any time.” "Inciting" arrests, such as the arrest of Ou Jialin: "He (arrest) is one of the (reasons), Ou Jialin is already so mild, and my comments are more frank than his, I like to express my views directly; (former legislation) Member) Zhang Chaoxiong would be imprisoned for three weeks; some girls who sold milk tea in the mall (referring to the arrest of two employees of the "Chu Ning Zhi Cha" store), just told people not to get vaccinated, that post There are only a few 'likes' charged with incitement and even without bail. The whole of Hong Kong is becoming more and more absurd and the threat more and more clear."
Lament "Cultural Revolution-style accusations" turned into law enforcement actions
When asked about the fact that the establishment camp likes to claim that "you don't break the law, you are doing the right thing and you are doing the right thing", Zhong Jianhua lamented that these statements are self-deceiving and completely meaningless. Laws with extremely low thresholds and vague boundaries are aimed at some people who disagree with the government. On the surface, they are legal, but in essence they are political: "If some people like to bury their heads in the sand, like to smear their own power, and deceive themselves, then they will follow suit. They like it, no one can wake up those who pretend to be asleep." He criticized some people who used "patriotic" slogans to show loyalty and gain profits, feeling that "the more left the better," and they should take responsibility for the current political situation in Hong Kong.
What are you doing to be surprised?
Zhong criticized someone to smear the power
When asked under what circumstances would he return to Hong Kong, Zhong Jianhua said: "I hope that one day, the situation in Hong Kong can prove my suspicions wrong, and everyone can freely criticize the unreasonable behavior of the government." He pointed out that since his student days, he has hoped Use knowledge to promote social change. If you silence your voice because of fear, it will be regarded as a betrayal of your decades-old aspirations. Therefore, I hope to have a free environment to comment on what I have seen and heard. I don't know when I'll be back."
Zhong Jianhua was interviewed by the National Security Department for three interviews with the Minyan Zhong Tingyao: everything is operating normally and continue to obey the law. Carrie Lam pointed out that Zhong Jianhua's departure from Hong Kong is a matter of freedom and the suspension of the Human Rights Award is an individual incident: he does not understand the constitution and is easy to worry.
